Solution
The correct options are A Voltage across resistor, inductor and capacitor are 50V,50√3V and (120+50√3)V respectively. C Power factor of the circuit is 513. D The circuit is capacitive in nature. In R-L-C series circuit, V2R+V2L=1002 (Vc−VL|=120
1302=V2R+(VC−VL)2⇒VR=50V ⇒ Voltage across inductor, VL=√1002−502=50√3V and voltage drop across capacitor, VC=(120+50√3V) Power factor, cosϕ=VRVZ=50130=513 Since, VC>VL, so circuit is capacitive.
